Don't even expect Windows here.
I know there's a way to compile gfxboot message files, and this aint it.
I borrowed from http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=15
and did some editing. I'm sure others can do better but this works for me. If you want you can copy this message.new.tar.gz , extract it and sudo cp
into /boot/grub directory and edit menu.lst accordingly. Just please back up menu.lst first.

uhh shouldnt it be >> if you want to append, rather than > which would just overwrite the whole file?sudo echo gfxmenu /boot/grub/message.suse > /boot/grub/menu.lst
how do I use qemu to boot, cause I cant seem to work it out from the documentation, cheres.
I followed the steps here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=15
and just changed some of the images from the suse message.
There is an ubuntu package -see http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...4&postcount=22
but I don't know how to use it.
